Update Role Definitions

Your first upgrade from CA Identity Manager r12 or r12.5 requires an update of role definitions as defined in the following steps. This update is required to include new role and task definitions, however, this update does not modify currently established roles in the environment by including new tasks. This restriction avoids unwanted changes to an already configured and functioning environment. However, after updating role definitions, you can modify any role to include a new task.

Follow these steps:

1. In the Management Console, click Environments.
2. Select the environment.
3. Go to Role and Task Settings.
4. Click Import.
5. Scroll up to see role definition files under the heading, Category: Upgrade to 12.5SP.
6. Select a single role definitions file based on the following table:

For example, if the CA Identity Manager environment was created for r12.5 SP2, it uses a provisioning server, and the CA Identity Manager user store has a flat hierarchy (no organization), select the following file:

Upgrade-12.5-to-12.5SP-RoleDefinitions-ProvisioningNoOrganization.xml.

After you import the role definition file, you can view and execute new tasks by assigning them to the appropriate admin role.
